the farm and eventually also the two farms next on the southeast, and when Alexander married he took up his residence in a log cabin that stood near the brook, on the farm originally laid out to the right of Abram Holmes. The farm between was the one laid out to Samuel Morrison, and that where Alexander McMurphy was born was laid out to David Morrison. The Morrisons deeded to Alexander's father March 14, 1767. Alexander received no more education than the common school afforded in pioneer times, when one term in a year was scarcely assured, and when money or teachers were wanting, children were taught at home or sent to the minister to learn to read and write. Alexander developed a trading faculty, and was enabled to improve his lands and increase his resources by peddling between Boston and the later settlements. He

was married Feb. 2, 1797, to Sally Dunean, daugh- ter of John and Hannah (Henry) Dunean, Rev. William Morrison performing the ceremony. In a few years from the time of going into the log house, down by the brook, Mr. MeMurphy was able to make an addition to his house of one room and an attie. It was not until 1810 that the present house was built, after six of his children had been born in the log cabin. Mr. MeMurphy attended church in Londonderry and had his arm chair and square family pew in the old meeting- house that stood on the hill east of the Hardy

place. He died Dee. 26, 1853, leaving a will dated Oet. 26, 1848, and his widow, who was six years younger, lived until Feb. 10, 1860. Nine children were born to them :
(1) James, born Nov. 22, 1797. He obtained a good rudi- mentary education, which he supplemented by extensive reading. His health not being very firm, he taught school for several years, travelled more or less, and engaged in various light occu- pations. April 12, 1842, in his forty-fifth year, he was married to Miss Sarah A. Reid of Londonderry, the officiating minister being Rev. David Brainerd. She was born in that town June 14, 1809, and in her childhood had lived in the family of David
Gilcreast and also with her uncle, David Reid. At the age of seventeen she obtained employment in the family of Deacon James Pinkerton, her wages being fifty cents a week and board. Notwithstanding the smallness of the sum, she resolved to lay the foundation of a system of economy that should enable her to acquire a fortune, and at the end of two years she had taken up so little of her wages that there remained fifty dollars of her money in the deacon's possession. This money she loaned to David Gilcreast, and the interest on it was sufficient to buy her a new pair of shoes every year. Leaving the deacon's family, she went to Lowell and found employment in one of the mills. where she continued her economical plan of living. When she had saved two hundred and fifty dollars she invested it in five shares of the Concord railroad and later purchased four more shares. Good fortune attended her investments, and her income was re-invested so that she realized a competence in her old age and was able to distribute about seven thousand dollars at her decease. After remaining in Lowell a few years she returned to Londonderry and taught school several terms before her mar- riage. As her husband had received a homestead they began their married life under favorable circumstances. Two children were born to this marriage : (a) Henry James, born Sept. 26. 1843, student at Pinkerton Academy, graduated from Dartmouth College in 1867, taught school in Danvers, Mass., Auburn, Lon- donderry, and Fitzwilliam, and died March 3. 1868. from an affection of the lungs. (b) Abbie Frances, born Feb. 25. 1847, graduated from Pinkerton Academy, taught in the public schools of Lawience five years and died Feb. 3, 1875. Bereft in their old age of both their promising children, the home of Mr. and Mrs. James McMurphy became very desolate. They continued to live in the memory of the past until death separated them in the decease of the husband, Jan. 28, 1881. His widow survived him fourteen years, her death occurring Dec. 25. 1894. By the provisions of her will she bequeathed a thousand dollars to the Episcopal Orphan's Home at Concord, the residue of her estate going to found three scholarships in Dartmouth College in memory of her two children and herself.
(2) John Duncan, born July 3. 1800 : he was a school- master, and when a young man went to the West and South. In May, 1834, he married Sarah Elizabeth Oesterlein, a Moravian nun of Bethlehem, Penn., a descendant of the Huguenots. One child, John Alexander, was born to Mr. and Mrs. McMurphy. July 9, 1838, in Hunterdon county, N. J. Mrs. McMurphy died Nov. 26, 1849, and in October. 1852. Mr. McMurphy married Sophie Rhinehart, of an old Dutch family. He divided his time between teaching and farming. and on the death of his second wife, without issue, Dec. 12, 1870. the home was broken up, and Mr. McMurphy removed to Plattsmouth. Neb., to live with his son. There he died March 13. 1877. John Alexander, the son, attended Pinkerton Academy. He has been a man of wide experience, clerking in New York city. and on the frontier of civilization in Nebraska in 1857. While fighting a prairie fire he lost the sight of one eye. He enlisted in New York several times without being able to pass the examination, until he finally joined Kilpatrick's Mounted Rifles and was accepted. His army experience was full of peril- ous adventures, and at the close of the war he returned to Nebraska and became a journalist. He has owned several

papers in succession, including the Blair Times, Plattsmouth Herald, Schuyler Sun, Wahoo Wasp, Hoof and Horn, and Beatrice Times. Mr. McMurphy has held various state offices.

THE OLD HILL GRAVEYARD .- The following poem was written by Frank M. Bagley, Derry Depot, 1895 :
E'en as of old, a calm, sequestered spot,- What sweeter refuge from corroding care ? - The changes which a century hath wrought Have left few traces of their passage there.
No modern innovations yet have thrown The glamor of the new about the old. The spirit of the past dwells there alone, In sweet communion with the deepening mold.
E'en to this day a rude enclosure pressed On flank and rear by tangled thickets deep ;
Rank grasses, by the gentle winds caressed, Crown the rough sod 'neath which the fathers sleep.
Nature hath decked her own with richest store;
Wild woodland flowers and ferns and mosses spring From these old mounds, with rude stones leaning o'er, To which a century's growth of lichens cling.
O'er cropping ledge and moss-grown bowlder trails The clinging tendril of blackberry vine ;
With vigorous growth the tangled wild grape scales The leaning birch and stunted pasture pine.
Since the first clod was turned in that lone spot, Since Wallace to his rest was laid away,
No more enduring triumph hath been wrought Than that which speaks from those old graves today.
The triumph of the pioneer who leads The van of human effort, and who stands
Untrammelled at the fount of human needs, And gives the world the labor it demands.
The triumph of the conquerer, whose might Hath tamed wild nature, and prepared the way
For human progress to maintain the right Of brain and brawn to undisputed sway.
That spot is hallowed by the honored dust Of those who sowed that other hands might reap.
What garnered treasure held in sacred trust
Is half so precious as the one we keep ?
THE BAPTIST CEMETERY .- This place of burial, located in the northwestern part of Londonderry, took its name from its proximity to the house of worship of the Baptist society, although it has been called the Corning cemetery from the large number of persons of that surname once living in the vieinity. Forest Hill Cemetery, near the First Parish church in Derry, was some- times called the Presbyterian graveyard, and the Londonderry graveyard, near the centre of the Sceond or West Parish, was called the Second Presbyterian or the Shipley graveyard. In gathering the names of the persons buried in the Baptist Cemetery, the same eare has been taken as in the other yards to preserve as far as possible every indieation of relationship, and groups have been made, occasionally interrupting the alphabetical arrangement, otherwise faithfully observed :
